Evidential equilibria: Heuristics and biases in static games of complete information

al-Nowaihi, Ali; Dhami, Sanjit - In: Games 6 (2015) 4, pp. 637-676

Standard equilibrium concepts in game theory find it difficult to explain the empirical evidence from a large number of static games, including the prisoner's dilemma game, the hawk-dove game, voting games, public goods games and oligopoly games. Under uncertainty about what others will do in...

Trait emotional intelligence is related to risk taking when adolescents make deliberative decisions

Panno, Angelo - In: Games 7 (2016) 3, pp. 1-8

Most forms of risky behavior reach their peak during adolescence. A prominent line of research is exploring the relationship between people's emotional self-efficacy and risk taking, but little is known about this relationship in the cognitive-deliberative domain among adolescents. The main aim...

The role of implicit motives in strategic decision-making: Computational models of motivated learning and the evolution of motivated agents

Merrick, Kathryn - In: Games 6 (2015) 4, pp. 604-636

Individual behavioral differences in humans have been linked to measurable differences in their mental activities, including differences in their implicit motives. In humans, individual differences in the strength of motives such as power, achievement and affiliation have been shown to have a...

Inequalities between others do matter: Evidence from multiplayer dictator games / David Macro and Jeroen Weesie (ICS

Macro, David; Weesie, Jeroen - In: Games 7 (2016) 2, pp. 1-23

Social motives are frequently used to explain deviations from selfishness in non-strategic settings such as the Dictator Game. Previous research has mainly focused on two-player games; the workings of social motives in multiplayer Dictator Games are less well understood. A core feature of...

Community-based reasoning in games: Salience, rule-following, and counterfactuals

Hédoin, Cyril - In: Games 7 (2016) 4, pp. 1-17

This paper develops a game-theoretic and epistemic account of a peculiar mode of practical reasoning that sustains focal points but also more general forms of rule-following behavior which I call community-based reasoning (CBR). It emphasizes the importance of counterfactuals in strategic...

Cognitive hierarchy theory and two-person games

Gracia-Lázaro, Carlos; Floría, Luis Mario; Moreno, Yamir - In: Games 8 (2017) 1, pp. 1-18

The outcome of many social and economic interactions, such as stock-market transactions, is strongly determined by the predictions that agents make about the behavior of other individuals. Cognitive hierarchy theory provides a framework to model the consequences of forecasting accuracy that has...

COVID-19: Data-driven mean-field-type game perspective

Tembine, Hamidou - In: Games 11 (2020) 4, pp. 1-107

In this article, a class of mean-field-type games with discrete-continuous state spaces is considered. We establish Bellman systems which provide sufficiency conditions for mean-field-type equilibria in state-and-mean-field-type feedback form. We then derive unnormalized master adjoint systems...

μ-σ games

Dulleck, Uwe; Löffler, Andreas - In: Games 12 (2021) 1, pp. 1-12

Risk aversion in game theory is usually modeled using expected utility, which was criticized early on, leading to an extensive literature on generalized expected utility. In this paper we are the first to apply μ-σ theory to the analysis of (static) games. μ-σ theory is widely...
